The Wheel of Names is completely free. You can use it as often as you want, add as many names as you like, and customize the wheel to fit your needs.
Every spin gives a random result. The outcome cannot be influenced, which makes the wheel a fair way to pick a winner or participant.
You can add a very long list of names. If there are more than 100 names, it might be harder to read them all on the wheel. For larger lists, the Spinning Names animation is a good option.
